I dont want a perfect strike zone, thats too large of an advantage to pitchers, but I do want a consistent one. Can we just have half in its a strike, half out is a ball? It would be a lot easier to code than whatever we have now

The only guy close to meta above 2 seconds who will be in next years game is CC Sabathia. All the meta pitchers are around the 1.5-1 second range, and there are no relievers on this lists, who generally have short windups. Lets assume a game where both people use Randy Johnson and pitch 80 pitches, with 1/3 of pitches from the stretch. That leaves about 120 pitches, which equals about 3 minutes. Lets also assume about 40 reliever pitches with no one on with about a .75 second difference is about another 30 seconds. That is about a 3.5 minute difference for a pitcher with a relatively long windup

@GoozeFn_PSN
It only saves 2 seconds if the pitcher's windup is incredibly long, and thats assuming all the pitchers used in the game have a long windup. In reality, it saves about a second per pitch, and assuming about 1/3 of the pitches were with runners on anyway, that cuts time savings to about 2 minutes, give or take.

@GoozeFn_PSN
Games are usually 30-40 minutes, not close to the length of a real game. Ive faced cc and paige multiple times, and their windups really arent that long. It adds like 3 minutes max and neither is meta anyway

This will maybe subtract 4 minutes from a game if the pitcher has a longer windup. Theres really no pitchers with a toxicly long windup. However, there are pitchers with somewhat toxic stretch moves, which I fear could become a problem

The transition to a new difficulty is hard, but youll get used to it eventually

@SchnauzerFace_MLBTS
And those people can speak Spanish.

@Dolenz_PSN
Same, although I did hear how bad of a lip syncing job Kid Rock did. To be honest, most live performances now are lip synced, Kid Rock just did a bad job of it

@SchnauzerFace_MLBTS
With opera, the is beautiful singing and instrumental music to listen to. With Bad Bunny, he's just chanting Spanish into a microphone. At the opera, you can understand what's going on without knowing the language, but with Spanish rap, you have no idea what's being said if you don't know Spanish

This is just a terrible choice. There are very few pitchers who have long windups and many pitchers with very short windups that are both hard to use pinpoint with and hard to see out of the hand. It might save like 2 minutes in a 9 inning game but the quality of play will drop

Congrats!

I usually dont like making rant posts like this, but Im making an exception here. I was playing a game today and my opponent brought in Josh Hader with 2 outs in the 5th. I absolutely crush the first pitch with Beltran, perfect PCI, perfect timing... 88 mph flyout. Next inning: perfect PCI and timing with Elly: 95 mph flyout dead center, perfect PCI just early with Trout: 95 mph flyout dead center, what should have been a perfect line drive with Schwarber: weak grounder to first. At this point Josh Hader is at 6 PITCHES because I was hitting everything. It doesnt end here though. I had batted around and Trout was up again: same PCI, same result; Schwarber is up: Same PCI, same result. Thank Goodness I won that game because if I didnt, my Xbox was going out the window

What about Trevor Rogers? He went from common to diamond in like 4 roster updates

Im gonna be honest, having Bad Bunny perform the halftime show is one of the dumbest decisions Ive ever seen. Having him perform the halftime show when 90% of the people dont know Spanish is just a terrible move

@envyCLAPZZ26_PSN
no

Patriots are a complete fraud, Seattle is blowing them out

Baltimore does

@Dinger_Dan19_PSN
I think they showed backpicks in the stream

@home-runn_PSN
idk, thats just what ive heard

If you dont play online, 100% do not get the digital deluxe. If you are going to be a casual player, 100% do not get the digital deluxe. If you dont have the money, 100% do not get the digital deluxe. The only real perk is getting the game a couple days early
